Our Partners
Ascend Flight Training Summit is built through a collaborative joint venture between two organizations committed to advancing aviation education, instruction, and professional development.
Together, they bring decades of experience, trusted leadership, and a shared mission to strengthen the flight training ecosystem.
AeroSummit is a national aviation training conference focused on supporting flight schools, instructors, and industry partners through business education, operational strategy, and community collaboration. Through its events and programming, AeroSummit creates environments where aviation professionals connect, share insight, and work collectively to strengthen training operations and long-term industry sustainability.
The National Association of Flight Instructors supports aviation educators through professional development, advocacy, training resources, and community programs that advance instructional quality and safety. For decades, NAFI has served as a cornerstone of instructor education—championing professionalism, mentorship, and continuous improvement across the aviation training community.
Why Ascend
Ascend represents the evolution of these shared missions.
By uniting instructional excellence with operational education and career readiness, Ascend delivers a single, cohesive summit designed to support students, instructors, and flight school leadership at every stage of growth.
